Yep. CT was able to go back and forth with FFVII for one hour and it led for thirty minutes. Quite similar these two matches.


And I'll say it again. CT is good with night, not so much with day.

Another Mario rally.

This looks tough for FF against Zelda because you'd expect Zelda to hold the lead for even longer (though perhaps Zelda wouldn't be as much of a board favorite as SMB). And if it does hold the lead for longer, it will also probably have the relative edge with the morning vote. So Final Fantasy might need a significant rally in the evening.

And besides, CT/FFVII started 3 hours later than this. That gave a bigger edge on its night vote.

Sure, FF will probably still win, but I doubt its getting to get more than 53%

Uh, FF will kill Zelda. It'd be pleasing to see Mario beat FF, but if FF wins this match, I think it can beat Zelda...I think. >_>

I've been thinking Mario was the bigger threat to FF than Zelda...

Though, ironically, in a match between Mario and Zelda, it's hard for me to consider Mario the favorite.

And the poll starting three hours earlier gives Mario more of an edge with his day vote.

It goes both ways.

If Mario actually increases it's lead on the next update you will:

A) Start wangsterbating furiously
B) Go find the nearest person sleeping, yell in the face "MARIO IS WINNING MOTHER ****ER, MARIO IS MOTHER ****ING WINNING!"
C) Cry a river like HM
D) Put it in Peach.

No. Zelda looks like the favorite against Final Fantasy. Mario can do 48% at absolute best.

Well, if Mario has a good day vote it'll be harder for Final Fantasy to increase its percentage. It doesn't go that way.

Only thing holding me back from predicting a Zelda win is this ridiculous number of votes. Had Zelda kept the 100,000 votes streak intact, I'd have more confidence. CJay will probably use FF's big guns for the match pic in the championship match too. Mario is almost certainly overperforming right now, but if that isn't the case, FF is going to get trashed tomorrow.

Mario still has a chance, it just has to not make FF roll over it before the day comes.

Which doesn't seem to be happening. Randomly increase your lead like you're supposed to!

Regarding Zelda, remember that Ceej has been holding Final Fantasy back ever since the Diablo match. This isn't quite peak-Final Fantasy.

Mario had BETTER outperform Zelda on FF. I don't care if you need to give Zelda a picture consisting solely of Tingle and Navi against five versions of Cloud and Sephiroth along with the cast of every single FF plastered about the front page, when the PS3 and the FFVII Remake have a surprise release tomorrow, but it BETTER happen.
